Fix modpost failures in fedora 17

2012-04-27T17:16:49+00:00

commit e88aa7bbbe3046a125ea1936b16bb921cc9c6349 upstream.

The symbol table on x86-64 starts to have entries that have names
like:

_GLOBAL__sub_I_65535_0___mod_x86cpu_device_table

They are of type STT_FUNCTION and this one had a length of 18.  This
matched the device ID validation logic and it barfed because the
length did not meet the device type's criteria.

--------------------
FATAL: arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel: sizeof(struct x86cpu_device_id)=16 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_x86cpu_device_table=18.
Fix definition of struct x86cpu_device_id in mod_devicetable.h
--------------------

These are some kind of compiler tool internal stuff being emitted and
not something we want to inspect in modpost's device ID table
validation code.

So skip the symbol if it is not of type STT_OBJECT.

modpost: Fix modpost license checking of vmlinux.o

2012-04-13T16:13:55+00:00

commit 258f742635360175564e9470eb060ff4d4b984e7 upstream.

Commit f02e8a6596b7 ("module: Sort exported symbols") sorts symbols
placing each of them in its own elf section.  This sorting and merging
into the canonical sections are done by the linker.

Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux.o
(which is not linked yet) and all modules object files (which aren't
linked yet).  These aren't sanitized by the linker yet.  That breaks
modpost that can't detect license properly for modules.

This patch makes modpost aware of the new exported symbols structure.

[ This above is a slightly corrected version of the explanation of the
  problem, copied from commit 62a2635610db ("modpost: Fix modpost's
  license checking V3").  That commit fixed the problem for module
  object files, but not for vmlinux.o.  This patch fixes modpost for
  vmlinux.o. ]

mod/file2alias: make modpost compile on darwin again

commit e49ce14150c64b29a8dd211df785576fa19a9858 breaks cross compiling
the linux kernel on darwin hosts.
This fix introduce some minimal glue to adopt linker section handling
for darwin hosts.

ARM: 7324/1: modpost: Fix section warnings for ARM for many compilers

2012-02-15T11:04:36+00:00

It turns out that many compilers don't show section warnings on ARM
currently because handling for ARM_CALL relocs are missing from
modpost.c.

Based on commit c2e26114 ([ARM] 3205/1: Handle new EABI relocations when
loading kernel modules) it seems that R_ARM_PC24, R_ARM_CALL and
R_ARM_JUMP24 can be handled the same way.

Note that at least Debian libc6-dev is missing defines for both
R_ARM_CALL and R_ARM_JUMP24 in /usr/include/elf.h. So for now
we need to define them in modpost.c if not defined.

module: fix broken isapnp handling in file2alias

2012-02-14T00:32:15+00:00

Handling of isapnp module aliases was broken by commit
626596e295d477c0fefa08cd5daa7dd011b1bb2c by changing "isapnp" string to "isa".
The code was then modified by commit
e49ce14150c64b29a8dd211df785576fa19a9858 but this bug remained.

Change the string back to "isapnp".

Revert "ARM: sa11x0: Implement autoloading of codec and codec pdata for mcp bus."

2012-01-20T17:38:58+00:00

This reverts commit 5dd7bf59e0e8563265b3e5b33276099ef628fcc7.

Conflicts:

	scripts/mod/file2alias.c

This change is wrong on many levels.  First and foremost, it causes a
regression.  On boot on Assabet, which this patch gives a codec id of
'ucb1x00', it gives:

	ucb1x00 ID not found: 1005

0x1005 is a valid ID for the UCB1300 device.

Secondly, this patch is way over the top in terms of complexity.  The
only device which has been seen to be connected with this MCP code is
the UCB1x00 (UCB1200, UCB1300 etc) devices, and they all use the same
driver.  Adding a match table, requiring the codec string to match the
hardware ID read out of the ID register, etc is completely over the top
when we can just read the hardware ID register.

This means (most) future busses need only have one hunk in their
patch.  Also took the opportunity to check that function matches the
type.

Again, inspired by Alessandro's patch series.
